This course represents the final project by the design team of Tom Weiskopf and Jay Morrish. The course features large rock outcroppings, dramatic elevation changes and scenic mountain views of the region's famed Mogollon Rim Country. The course is set among America's largest continuous stand of Ponderosa pine trees. This is a private course restricting guests to play with members. The greens on the course are undulating, protected by bunkers and medium in size. The fairways are very undulating and open. Large boilers on the backside of the green highlight #13, the course's signature hole. This 581-yard, par 5, is incredibly scenic.

Desert Aire Golf Course
"golfer"
A good course with well maintained greens and fairways. Deserves about a three and one half rating.

"Dutch"
A tremendous couse in a beautiful mountain setting, especially in September and October when in full fall foliage, the afternoon temperatures in the low 70's and the skies so blue the horizon lines become razor sharp. The back nine challange you with mountain streams, blind doglegs, an occasional buck jumping from a creek bed and or lofty tee boxes daring you to choose a loftier iron for dropping it between the aspens and the traps.... Not too many courses in the world offer better views, thinner air for longer drives, or nicer people to pamper your needs. July through mid October is prime... take plenty of time and the closest of friends, I guarantee you a memorable experiance and a challanging round!

"Don't let the yardage decieve you"
ALthough it's a short course, this plays very difficult, thanks to the narrow fairways, and smallish, yet undulating greens

Cardinal Creek Golf Club
"Cardinal Creek-Scott AFB, IL"
A course perhaps more friendly for the long-ball hitter with more than enough water and some deviously placed sand. Access to the course requires a military affiliation or a friend who can host your play but, well worth the trip. Given its location (on base), play is seldom hampered by a crowded course which also makes it a most hospitable course for the slower player, the short ball hitter or those just learning the game. The placement of water (ponds and streams) makes for an interesting attack plan and invites disaster for the reckless. Improved traps, general landscaping and more attention to tee boxes and greens over the past two seasons has made the course much more enjoyable. The first six holes are a low rolling layout with a lot of trees in play along the fairways. The rest of the course is basically flat with several holes playing parallel to the runway and an occasional aircraft take-off or landing adding to the view. Course amenities are well maintained. Walk, pull a cart or ride in a relatively new electric cart. The golf carts are in great shape and an adjacent driving range is a plus for tuning up before hitting off of the first tee. The clubhouse has a small grill for lunch with a comfortable seating area for a beer after the game. The pro shop is equipped to handle most needs.
